eHow videos on how to get money to make your indie film

How to Get Money to Make an Independent Film:

Cory Turner says making a movie is about selling dreams. The investors should be interested in seeing their names on the screen. He says: "No one is going to invest in your movie unless you have a good budget set up." How much money do you have, your friends and family have to invest in this film, how much money you can pull together.

Microphones and Sound Equipment in Indie Filmmaking:

He shows us a microphone and boom pole that holds the microphone. If you shoot outside, there may be airplanes flying over. If you shoot inside, there may be air conditioners going.

Lighting in Indie Filmmaking:

Now that you can hear the actors, you also have to see them and here's the part about lighting. If you shoot outside, the natural sunlight will be used. You can go to a hardware store and buy the highest watts in light bulbs to film.

More Lighting in Indie Filmmaking:

If there is too much light on the actors, they will wash out. Lighting is important to make the film look good. There is editing to make the film look good, but if you can make the film look good on set when you're shooting, it's going to be easier when you're editing.
